Dear Friends and Family,                                                                                         

    It seems that everyone is talking about the economy these days. Isn’t it awesome to know that as Christians we don’t have to go around every day as people without hope, but instead we can put our faith in Jesus Christ and put our focus on our inheritance waiting for us in Heaven one day? As Christians, we need to invest not in earthly things that will not last, but in eternal things that will last forever.

    Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal. But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal. For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also. Matthew 6:19-21

    The majority of the people living in Peru are not Christians.  They have not had the opportunity to hear the powerful and life changing word of God. God has called our family to serve in Peru and share about His love to the lost souls that have never had the opportunity to hear about the hope that is found in Jesus Christ.  We challenge you today to pray diligently for the lost souls in Peru and all over this planet.  Today we are closer than ever before to Christ’s return and there is much work to do.  Please ask God what He would have you to do to enlarge His kingdom. 

                                                                                In His Service,                                                                       

                                                                                    Danny, Jennifer, Christopher, and Catherine

 

Family Update

    As many of you know Jennifer and I are blessed with two fantastic children.  Our daughter Catherine is in 6th grade and is involved with drama club, band, spelling bee, 4-H, bible drill, and a lot of homework. She also has been instrumental in getting students at her school to meet and pray once a month.    God has given her many talents and skills that we are so proud of. We know that God has wonderful plans for her now and in the future.

    Christopher is making us smile each day with his achievements that many may take for granted.  With a special needs child the little things are huge accomplishments.  He is beginning to sleep through the night in his own bed! 

    Unfortunately, we found out over the Christmas holidays that Christopher will need back surgery.  His surgery will be on March 4 at Scottish Rite.  We ask you to remember him and our family in your prayers during this time.  We know that God is in control and will continue to hold Christopher in the palm of His hand.   

Support Update

  After much prayer, our family has decided to delay our departure for Peru until the summer of 2010.  This will give Christopher a chance to heal from his back surgery and also give us the opportunity to share our calling with more of our brothers and sisters in Christ.

    We have had the opportunity to speak and be blessed by several mission minded churches. Our prayer is that God keeps providing us with the opportunities to share our hearts with His people and invite them to partner with us in fulfilling The Great Commission found in the Gospel of Matthew. 

    We would be thrilled to come and share about the exciting calling that God has placed on our lives with your church family.  We hope to see each of you soon!
